RESEARCH
Find your story.
Our team provides research and development support for documentaries, fiction projects, and news stories across Brazil. With extensive local connections and experience working on international productions—including true-crime docuseries for US and UK networks—we understand how to navigate sensitive topics and secure access.
In 2021, we contributed research and production to Mother of the Dawn, a documentary short film about a 1960s Brazilian leader of a new religious doctrine. The film premiered at South by Southwest 2023 and was selected as a Vimeo Staff Pick that same year.

Whether developing a story or negotiating access, we focus on practical solutions tailored to each project’s needs. Our approach prioritizes cultural awareness and ethical standards while working within Brazil’s regulatory landscape. We can't stress enough how important it is to have someone who speaks the same language as the subject to not only respect their boundaries but to establish good rapport and tell the right story.
While Brazil is renowned for its warm hospitality, English proficiency among the general population remains limited. Additionally, foreign production teams may inadvertently create apprehension among local communities unfamiliar with international film crews. Our team specializes in bridging these gaps—facilitating clear communication, fostering trust with local stakeholders, and ensuring cultural sensitivities are respected throughout your production process.
